The price in context
The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 7,650 yen per sqm, down about 4% over five years (8,000 to 7,650), which the survey classes as stable.
The asking price works out at about 12,486 yen per sqm of land, 63% above the nearest residential benchmark of about 7,650 yen per sqm.

Area and hazard data
4 checks clear, 4 to know about. Each check is against a government map for this exact point. Where a map is missing or we can't use it, we say so; that never means there's no risk.
- Earthquake code Checked, clear
- Built after the 1981 earthquake code
- Strong-earthquake chance Warning
- About 31% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, high for Japan, where most places sit between 3% and 26%
- Landslide risk Checked, clear
- Checked: no designated landslide zone at this location. Zone edges are approximate, and this is not a legal property disclosure document.
- Flood risk Checked, clear
- Checked: outside a mapped flood area. The maps cover designated rivers only, so this is not a promise of no flooding.
- Tsunami risk Checked, clear
- Checked: no designated tsunami inundation zone at this location
- Liquefaction Caution
- High liquefaction susceptibility. A ground survey should be part of any purchase.
- Volcanic hazard Note
- In Sakurajima's ashfall band, about 32 km from the crater. Ash is a nuisance for roofs, cars and laundry rather than a danger to the house.
- Farmland rules Warning
- Inside a strict farmland zone. You will need the agricultural committee's permission to buy or convert, and foreign buyers are often refused.
